About HIVEX
The nearshoring answer to Alibaba.
HIVEX connects buyers in the United States and Canada with verified manufacturers across Latin America, with White Lion Procurement running the operation behind every trade.
About HIVEX
Why we built it
Buyers sourcing from Asia live with long and unpredictable lead times, high freight, quality control at a distance, and communication across languages and time zones.
Latin American factories are closer, faster and culturally aligned — but fragmented. Thousands of capable manufacturers have no common marketplace, no shared verification standard and no easy way for a US buyer to find, vet and trade with them safely.
HIVEX is built to do for Latin America what Asian marketplaces did for Asia: search products, compare factories, negotiate, order, ship and inspect — without the distance.
In the HIVEX manufacturer database
We don’t start from zero
Behind HIVEX sits a working database of Latin American manufacturers compiled by White Lion Procurement. Mexican records are cross-checked against the official IMMEX registry. Factories are invited to claim pre-built profiles instead of starting from a blank form.

Our commitments
Six promises we hold ourselves to
-
1
Verified, never scraped
A factory is “Verified” only after document review — legal, tax and address proof specific to its country — and a live video call matched against its factory photos. Verification expires and is renewed.
-
2
An operation, not just introductions
With White Lion Procurement, HIVEX sells the work around the trade: freight quotes, QC inspections, factory audits, trade consulting and a done-for-you border crossing.
-
3
Protected trade
HIVEX Assurance is designed to hold the buyer’s payment until the order passes agreed checkpoints, with inspections and a defined mediation path when something goes wrong.
-
4
Honest claims
Every number we publish is a real, current figure, labelled with its basis. We promise lower landed cost and faster, safer sourcing — not magically cheaper factories.
-
5
Bilingual, Spanish-first for factories
Buyers work in English. Factories are onboarded and supported in Spanish (Portuguese for Brazil), and negotiation includes translation support.
-
6
Factories win too
A Latin American factory gets structured access to the US market: a claimed profile, listings, leads and export guidance — with its first 10 leads free and no card to start verification.
